Nothing made sense, there is the grief but you’re having to completely turn things around so you’re having to go home without your baby…nothing made sense.” Every hospital in England with a neonatal unit is being asked whether they have considered installing CCTV as part of the inquiry - and the mother said she believed surveillance cameras would have prevented Letby murdering her child. open image in gallery Lucy Letby was given 15 whole life orders after she was convicted of murdering seven babies and trying to kill a further seven Giving evidence on Monday, Child C’s mother said: “We absolutely had no idea that there had been layer upon layer upon layer of concern voiced by various people within the hospital about the conduct of Lucy Letby and her association with these deaths. Mother C told the inquiry: “To find out now that all the time Ian Harvey met with us in February 2017 he was well aware of both the concerns about Letby and the report of our son’s death did contain criticism is an absolute disgrace.” She said she wanted a face-to-face apology from Mr Harvey, who is retired and now lives in France.
